Visit My Mosque Day 2018

Saturday 17 February 2018, 1:30pm–4:30pm, Clifton Road Mosque

As part of the national #VisitMyMosque initiative, the Abbasi Islamic Centre, Birmingham, also known as the Clifton Road Mosque, is inviting one and all to the experience of visiting our mosque. We warmly extend our invitation to you in a spirit of friendship and hope of building a better understanding with each other to bring about the harmony in the world that we all desire.

We will be having a variety of engaging activities as highlighted in our poster attached including some activities for the children so please spread the word and kindly display the poster within your communities.

In addition, we are delighted to have the opportunity to host A Portrait of Balsall Heath works by photographer Dan Burwood, involving community organisations and individuals to build a people’s photographic portrait of Balsall Heath; in doing so, people from diverse faiths and backgrounds will be brought together, to prompt new encounters between people who were previously strangers, through collective photographic recording of a community.

Dan's pop-up portrait studio will offer free of charge professional photographic portraits, printed while you wait. If you wish, the collected images can then be exhibited in a community location, and collected in a book deposited at Balsall Heath Library, as a legacy for the people of the area.

We are also very pleased to have Odara, the Women's Network Support, Sanctuary and Wellbeing available to provide information about their work within the Balsall Heath Community.

During the event delicious refreshments will be served and we will be conducting congregational prayers at 5:15pm for which you are welcome to stay and observe if you may wish.
